Traditions
The Princeton High School Alma Mater:
And here we have Princeton High winning her way to fame.
The white and maroon in the sunlight gleam.
And romance lies in her name.
And we're singing, singing of you.
All our lives through, all proudly too.
We'll be singing, singing of you.
Alma mater of Princeton High.
